Integrity of Value

In the Overland Big Four-cylinder touring car and the Overland Light Four-cylinder. touring car, the luxurious and the practical are in proper balance to produce lasting satisfaction.

The Big Four, is finished in a deep rich brown, while the colour of the Light Four is a beautiful shade of gray. These two models exemplify the remarkable values made possible by tremendous production. *Size does not of itself constitute greatness.

An industry is as great as its service to the public. But size does usually constitute opportunity for service. In the case of Overland, size originally was an indication of foresight and courage.

I constituted an opportunity, to establish new values in motor cars-this was a service.

Growth came as a reward of this service, and with growth came opportunity for further service further revision of values.

Today's immensity means experience, facilities and resources, plus the public confidence, which gives these things stability for yet greater service.

The Willys-Overland ideal of service is integrity of value in the product throughout the whole life of that product's service.

The Willys-Overland Motor Cars which we have to show you exemplify this ideal and constitute the most comprehensive range of models ever built by any one motor car producer.
